My Latest Creative Burst | Floral Art Note Cards

You know how sometimes you just need a few note cards on hands to send for a birthday, or as a thank you note, or even if you are mailing a check to your CPA. Lately, that has happened to me a number of times, and I would find myself buying a couple extra just to have spare. Until I realized that I should just design my own, something I had already done in the past. Finally about a month ago I was in one of those moments when doing something creative was a necessity, so I started playing around.

 

Initially I thought I would design 5×7 cards, but somehow I could not get to something I really resonated with. I saved what I had worked on, and moved on to playing with a square format. Well, that really flowed and things took on a life of their own. I even added a quote I had recently found and loved. When I uploaded to my printing lab’s server I decided to go for the new art recycled paper. I am always excited when something from my printer arrives, but this time I really couldn’t wait to see the result. Well, here it is.

Everyone that has received one from me has contacted me back to say how much they loved the card, so I thought I would share my latest creative endeavor with you, too. What do you think?

These are for my own personal use, but I am actually considering making them available for purchase in a shop here on the site. That would take a little behind-the-scenes organizing, especially since I really like the idea of using quotes, so I would need a little time, but I will get there. Would you be interested?

Above you see the back of the card. Below are the files with the front (minus the logo) and the center spread, which has a space for a hand-written note on the right.

In the last few days I noticed how the light and the colors in nature have shifted. The sweltering heat may disagree, but the light is softer and there are more yellow tones overall in nature, and greens are more subdued in the trees, especially the big ones. 

I notice this every year, increasingly more keenly since becoming a photographer and thus having learned to constantly evaluate the light. Noticing this subtle transition seems to happen no matter where I am. I used to notice it even when I lived in Hawai’i, where there are no deciduous trees and this shift is much more subtle….

Happy Birthday to my gorgeous Mum! 83 and counting! ❤️
So grateful she is still with us, especially after the scare she gave us a year ago.

This is a portrait (of a series) I did a few years ago with one of her beloved gowns. Definitely a princess, don’t you think? ❤️

She is saying you should go and treat yourselves to some cake, or better yet, her favorite dessert: Panna Cotta!
